This is going to be interesting.
Xiahe Village
Amidst the deafening sounds of gongs and drums, the entrance to the Yang family's residence was packed with people.
Wearing a new jacket and trousers, Yang's mother waited eagerly at the door, listening to the praise from relatives and neighbors.
“I heard that your newlywed bride not only has a dowry of five hundred yuan, but also three large trunks.”
"I heard that the bride is a high school graduate and works in a textile factory."
"Hey, aren't the Yang family's bride and the Lu family's sisters? What does her family have?"
Everyone turned to look at Lu's mother, who was standing at the door.
"Hey, Lu Rong, what's your daughter-in-law like?"
Lu Rong paid no heed to her provocation. "It's nothing. She came alone, and I like that too."
Yang's mother laughed sarcastically, "They're just not presentable. They didn't even finish elementary school. They have nothing. If you ask me, no matter how hard they try, they can't change their impoverished air."
So what if he's a soldier?
Sister-in-law Lu couldn't stand it anymore and put her hands on her hips, ready to retort.
"Say less." Mr. Lu spoke up at the right moment, and Mrs. Lu swallowed back the words she was about to say. She glared at her father-in-law, who was only good at bullying his own family, and took a deep breath, about to curse.
"Eldest daughter, go check if the water is boiled yet."
Lu's mother glanced at her husband with disappointment.
She was ridiculed by the Yang family, and whenever someone tried to help her, Old Man Lu would stop them.
"Yang Lin, get back home!" This was the first time Lu's mother had ever yelled at him.
Yang Lin's expression changed. "What did you say?"
Lu Rong sneered, "Are you still going to take Zhong Qingqing's side like this? Are you incorrigible?"
Yang Lin's expression changed.
"What nonsense are you talking about? She's the eldest sister-in-law."
Lu Rong laughed, "I only have an elder brother, not an elder sister-in-law. Don't forget, you, Yang Lin, are my Lu family's son-in-law. You have no right to speak in the Lu family. Get back here, or don't blame me for having someone gag you."
Yang Lin opened his mouth, betting that Lu Rong wouldn't dare.
But no one dared to mess with Lu Rong, who had gone mad.
He awkwardly shut his mouth.
Zhong Qingqing watched this scene and said, "Oh, Lu Rong, Yang Lin is still a member of the Yang family. She worked herself to the bone to have children for your Lu family, and in the end, you didn't even give her any dignity. You, Lu Rong, are quite capable."
She's sarcastic and unpleasant.
Lu Rong retorted, "Then why don't you take him back and serve him?"
Zhong Qingqing's expression changed.
Who would want that good-for-nothing Yang Lin?
"I'll tear your mouth apart."
Lu Rong rolled up his sleeves. "Come on."
Looking at her mother-in-law, who was now at full fighting spirit, Sister-in-law Lu was full of admiration. In the past, her father-in-law would cause trouble, but today she was standing up for herself.
She found out that her mother-in-law was angry that the Yang family had taken over the marriage and was trying to smear her brother-in-law.
It looked like the two were about to start fighting again.
The crowd quickly pulled Zhong Qingqing away.
Amid the noise, a carriage could be vaguely seen.
"They're here, the bride is here."
"Wow, I see you've hauled a lot of stuff, lots of boxes."
"It must be Qiao Shanshan. I heard that her mother made a lot of furniture. Qiao Shanshan is the most favored child in the family, so it must be her."
They exchanged words, one after the other, Zhong Qingqing's gaze fixed on the approaching carriage, her eyes filled with greed.
Before long, the carriage approached.
The Lu family, who were leading the way, hired horses from a neighboring village. When they reached the Yang family's door, Zhong Qingqing told them to stop.
As a result, the car drove past her, kicking up a cloud of dust in her face.
